- Burrows_Island_Light abstract "In 1905, prompted by the loss of several vessels to nearby Dennis Shoal and Lawson Reef, the Lighthouse Board selected the westernmost tip of Burrows Island, near Anacortes, Washington, as the site for a new light station. The island covering more than 400 acres (160 ha) stands just off Fidalgo Island, and presents a rugged aspect to sailors. The Burrows Island Light facing Rosario Strait, Washington, was first lit April 1, 1906. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer published a small photograph and enthusiastic article on May 2, 1906. “The fog signal station is a model plant and contains all the latest improvements. A fourteen foot trumpet is used to sound the warnings instead of a bell, and the contrivance is operated by the power of two powerful gasoline engines.”The Daboll trumpet fog signal blew the next year for 329 hours. The 34 square feet (3.2 m2) tower is attached to the fog signal building and once held a fourth-order Fresnel lens.Captain James Hermann and his assistant Edward Pfaff were the first keepers at the station, which consisted of four buildings: the lighthouse itself, a boathouse and shop, a small coal and oil building and the massive duplex which dominates the station.The wood-framed lighthouse stands nears the island's shoreline, which mainly consists of sharp and rocky drop-offs. Automated in 1972, the Fresnel lens was replaced with modern optics and a helicopter landing pad located where the lighthouse keeper's home formerly stood.".
